LOVER'S LULLABY  by Townes Van Zandt (as recorded on "The Highway Kind"
===============                                      and mistitled "A Song
For")

[Intro:]  C G F C G C

           C                      G                   F
  The dreams that have flown down the hall
C                               F                C
  The tears that were sown on despair
Am                     C
  Summer turned Fall
           F              C
  It don't matter at all
              Am                    F           C
  When I wake and find you  lying there
              G               F               C
  Sweet silence and soft auburn hair

  Oh, the blues gonna' dance through the sky
  Time's gonna' roll soft as rain
  Sigh after sigh
  Is gonna' pass by and by

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



  Till I gaze into your brown eyes again
  Awe, love is gonna' fly on the wind

[Bridge:]Am                              C                  F
    C
   And all the things I've seen and the places that I've been
 Am                          C                F              C
   They don't mean a thing since I found you
 Am                      C
   All that matters now
                F                          C
   Since I won your love somehow
                               Am                     F                 Em
 G
   Are these plans that I keep making not to lose you

  So sleep babe till the moon slips away
  I'm hoping all your dreaming comes true
  When you rise with the day
  I might not have too much to say
  But you know that doesn't mean that I don't love you
  Awe, you know that doesn't mean that I don't love you

[Repeat Bridge and 1st Verse]
